Curiously, runner-up Royal Copy also made the Vet List coming out of the race, listed as "injured". And Runway Lute fell past the wire, but was allowed to walk off and did not make the Vet List.

An "unusual" Hopeful as Larry Colmus said...
Can a horse be deemed as "unsound" because they refused to race/mental case? Or does it have to be physical ailments?
